KitGuru says: if you’re looking to start streaming, creating content or you’ve already began your journey but you’re now looking for a portable setup then the AVerMedia BO311 kit is certainly something to check out. During our testing we found each item complimented each other as a whole and we wouldn’t say any one of these products lets the others down. If you’re in the market for a 4K setup then this is not the kit for you but for streaming this is an excellent starting point.
